March 24-25, 2020

Due to the COVID-19 situation, we had to cancel the in-person workshop we had planned to hold in Brussels March 24-25. However, we were able to organize a very success joint for virtual meeting on 24 March that covered much of the content and exchange between CONFERS and the European Operations Framework that was originally planned.

The joint CONFERS-EU virtual meeting was held on March 24th from 9am – 12pm EST with speakers from both CONFERS and the EU, followed by a CONFERS-only virtual meeting 1400-1600 EST to discuss the status of our technical and policy working groups and our work products for this year.

Please visit the CONFERS members-only site for the meeting agenda and speaker presentations. If you need access to the MO site, please follow this link. 

International Astronautical Congress 2019

Also of interest: The IAC2019 Plenary GNF session and panel on OOS

GLOBAL NETWORKING FORUM
OOS and Related Technologies Enabling Next-Gen Space Missions and Ultimate Exploration

Wednesday 23 October 2019, 17:05 – 17:45
Location: The Walter E. Washington Convention Center – Grand Ballroom A

In light of up-taking exploration missions, first commercial satellite life extension missions and numerous global efforts to implement space system modularity and plug-and-play concepts, as well as next-gen standards for space (e.g. via CONFERS or the Deep Space Interoperability Standards) the session will address thriving issues with a distinguished panel of industry and agency representatives driving top-notch on-orbit servicing (OOS), on-orbit-assembly (OOA), on-orbit manufacturing (OOM), new operational concepts and business models, and supporting concomitant activities and standard developments.

CONFERS will host its second Global Satellite Servicing Forum (GSSF) at the FHI 360 Conference Center in Washington, DC. This is the premier annual event for discussing industry-led operational standards, as well as technology, market, and policy developments in on-orbit satellite servicing and maintenance capabilities (including manufacturing and assembly). These areas are emerging as the cornerstone of future commercial and civil space activities.

We hope to see there!
